No way ...
The BEST NewsReader for OS/2 is ProNews/2 ... without a doubt ...

:-)

Most importantly ... PN is still under active developement ...
In fact a new version was just released a couple of weeks ago ...

When PMINews first came out I was pretty excited to have a companion to PMMail ...
IIRC that release was so bad it was quickly followed up with a fixpak ...

Finally ... The sourcecode is available for porting to windows if someone so desired ...
But it is pure code ... unlike many/most windows programs that rely on some version of MFC ...
Which I believe would make it a very difficult port to do ... since there's no analogue in PM ...
